You should use GNS instead of GPS in your AT commands. Hope this helps.

Hi!

I am just a begginner and I’d like to know if after it be configured through Arduino Uno it will be able to “track” without Arduino uno. Is that possible? Ask you that because all videos i’ve ever seen it’s always connected to an Arduino device.

Regards.

You need to send AT commands to control this board, use MCU like arduino is more easy to send commands, also can use PC computer. Not very sure better idea.

As an answer to some previous questions you do need to connect to an MCU in order to properly use this module and this version of the SIM808 uses the GNS commands not the GPS commands. Also my module already had the Bluetooth version of the firmware loaded and I did not have to upgrade the firmware in order to use the Bluetooth commands. Just had to solder on an antenna connector and attach a Bluetooth compatible antenna and it worked great.
